www.chadd.org
This is the website for the organization Children and Adults with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder. It includes useful on AD/HD information for all types of people including families, adults and children with AD/HD, teachers, students, and organizations who have members that might have AD/HD. The website is geared towards helping those with AD/HD, especially in finding someone in their local area to provide them with counseling services.
www.adhd.com
This website is designed to help parents of those with AD/HD and adults with AD/HD. It provides an overview of what AD/HD is as well as tips on handling it. The most helpful thing I found on this site was a test to determine the probability of whether or not a person has Adult AD/HD. Also they have a forum for those with AD/HD to discuss their experiences with one another.
www.adhdnews.com
This website serves as a clearing house for news related to AD/HD. I think that this site would be useful to anyone who wants to keep abreast of the latest developments in AD/HD. This site was particularly useful in that it contained links to many outside sources that had news articles about the latest in AD/HD news.
www.add-adhd.org
This website serves as a FAQ (frequently asked questions) about AD/HD. It seems to be designed around informing parents and teachers about the symptoms and treatments for children with AD/HD. It also contained links to news articles posted on the web and on TV. Also useful, the site had video’s of news articles covering AD/HD.
http://www.edutechsbs.com/adhd/
This site is called the AD/HD owners manual. It is presented a guide for those who have AD/HD. It contains essays describing what it is like having AD/HD and methods of coping and living with it. The site also includes information on the cause of AD/HD and the neurological reasons that it occurs.
http://www.pediatricneurology.com/adhd.htm
This site hosts an entire E-book on the topic of AD/HD. It seems to be directed at anyone who wants to know more about AD/HD, but it uses lots of technical terms that make it practically useful primarily to those who have a strong background in psychology. Beyond its strong technical nature the site has lots of useful information about almost every facet of AD/HD.
www.adders.org
This site is presented as an information clearinghouse for those with AD/HD. It is poorly organized, but contains a wealth of information if you are patient enough to navigate its poor layout. The site has contact information for organizations hosting events in support of AD/HD, forums for discussing AD/HD, and many other articles designed to promote awareness of AD/HD.
http://www.help4adhd.org/
This is the home page for the National Resource Center on AD/HD. This site is primarily designed for parents of children with AD/HD. It contains information about the diagnosis and treatment of those with AD/HD and methods of coping with it. It also includes information on how schools handle children with AD/HD. The most useful feature about this site is a link where you can enter in a question about AD/HD, and a healthcare professional will answer your question.
http://kidshealth.org/parent/emotions/behavior/adhd.html
This is a site intended to educate parents on what exactly AD/HD is. It contains a list of the symptoms of the different types of AD/HD, although it doesn’t offer any information about their treatment. It is a good site for learning what exactly AD/HD is, but not for learning any in depth information about it.
http://www.ritalindeath.com/
This website is intended for parents of those with AD/HD. It is designed to inform them of the dangers of the treatments used to control AD/HD. It contains a lot of useful information that could be important to the making of informed decisions regarding whether on not to medicate a child. Unfortunately the site takes a sensationalistic attitude about it and comes across as far too biased. On the positive side it advises that parents learn all that they can about AD/HD before making any decisions that may adversely affect their child’s health.
